Hi Charles, curious about the MM, send me a pm or mail when you get the chance.

Sorry I haven't posted in a while, been busy house hunting in L.A., but I've taken some amazing photos, that I'd love to share soon. Also, good work everyone, seeing some really nice work on here (mainly checking on my ipad, rarely getting onto my computer these vacation days, harder to comment).

Charles, thanks for sharing the details of that modification.

I just picked up an M3 with the dual range summicron 50. While I don't have current plans or funds to go for a digital body it is nice to know that the lens can be modified to work with one.

Do you know whether the lens still engages the rangefinder coupling on the older analog cameras like my M3 after it has been modified ?

BTW, see you're in the Gold Coast - Hinterland - lovely place. I used to live up in Brissie up until a year ago - back in Europe now after 8 years.

OptFlow, you are welcome If you have the DR with the M3, the M9/M240 can be easily modified by milling a very small radius as shown on the previous page. This will allow the DR to work on both the M3 and M9/M240.

My situation is that I would like to use the DR, on different M bodies, so the modification on the DR is better suited. The near cam RF has been modified, so the RF for Macro is not accurate, but works perfectly with LV. The near cam modification is not reversible.

Thank you, the Gold Coast is a wonderful place

great pictures everyone!

Gary, I think I would prefer the b&w, but with a bit more contrast.

Sorry for not commenting more, but my time is the past few weeks a bit limited.

The light doesn't treat me good lately, therefore just snapshots. Some of them are very tight in terms of the framing, I know, but was to lazy for better framing.

Peter, wonderful set of shots!!! Favourites this time are with the 21 SEM

As a follow up, my 1958 50 Summicron Rigid I DR, arrived back this morning and works amazingly well with the M240. Macro is great to have there, and the RF accuracy for 1m to infinity is very accurate. This is will be my main lens for the trip to Bali this time. Here is a shot of the 50 Cron DR with the M-M 75 Lux.

Thanks for comments and likes.

Gary, great shot from Banff
Peter, perhaps not the best light but still great images.
Charles, excellent macro photos. Looks like you struck gold with that lens.

Not much photo activity on my part currently so here are two from the archive. Any Harley lovers out there?

Great shots all! I have been really busy, not much time to get out.

Peter - lovely landscapes, even with the poor light

Gary - the clarity of the 1st shot on this page is just excellent. Very nice

Joakim - the Harley shots are great! I don't have a bike (would like one ) but love shooting them

Charles - I can't wait to see more from the modified DR 50. The last shot of the dog has a very nice rendering to it

Mono with 35 Nokton II...what a combination!

Everyone, stunning shots!!

So according to my wife, I made her keep her hair long for 10 years (as apparently I like girls with long hair). And I told her after the wedding she could cut it however she liked (she wanted long hair for the wedding anyway, and I've never been able to tell her what to do, so I'm not sure that I'm the one who "made" her keep her hair long).. So anyway she chopped it off before we went on all our travels (Sydney, New Zealand, California). I took some images of her throughout our travels, but here is one from California..

A shot from Santa Monica Pier using the 50APO (seems like the only lens I use) wide open @ f/2:







BTW, the flare issue is going to be getting "fixed" soon. My wife likes the flare, but it does ruin shots, so I'm going to send it in next week. Will update everyone on how it performs after the fact. BTW, without the filter, the flare isn't as bad.. But will update.
